Boris Vallejo Original Oil Painting - The Dragon and the George

Original oil-on-board painting by Boris Vallejo. Fantasy artist Boris Vallejo became the aesthetic successor to Frank Frazetta with his amazing imagery of beautiful women, fantastic creatures and alien dreamscapes. This is a magnificent early original painting by Vallejo titled The Dragon and the George . That it was highlighted in the first book published featuring his paintings in the late 1970s makes it particularly significant. The regal female archer, joined by a knight on a powerful charger and a menacing dragon, contemplates the impending conflict with evil-looking winged denizens of a floating castle. Gorgeous color and superior composition. Dimensions: 15" x 23" (image area). Matted and framed to total dimensions of 24.5 x 32.5 inches. Reserve $1,000. Estimate (open).
